GECA has created a lifecycle ecolabel standard to remove doubt and confusion and make identifying environmentally and socially preferable products easier.
The standard sets requirements that aim to provide a benefit by:
• demonstrating performance and safety for the Australian market
• avoiding the illegal harvest of natural materials and fibre for raw materials
• reducing the use and subsequent release of environmentally harmful substances to the environment at all stages of the product’s lifecycle
• encouraging recovery, reuse, recycling and responsible disposal of unwanted product and packaging
• reducing the presence and release of substances harmful to human health
• ensuring workers and suppliers through the supply chain can expect fair pay, equal opportunity, and a safe working environment
The scope of this standard is applicable to infant mattresses products, including but not limited to:
• Cot and crib mattresses
• Household cot mattresses
• Mattresses for Bassinets
• Other flat sleeping surfaces
GECA is proud to showcase that fourteen of our standards are recognised by the Green Building Council of Australia (GBCA) under their Responsible Product Framework for the Green Star Buildings V1 rating tool—a testament to our enduring commitment to sustainability in the built environment.
